Screenprint in colors on Schoellers Parole paper // Robert Indiana's Decade (USA 666) is a striking screenprint from 1971, using bold, contrasting colors of yellow and black. The composition consists of five interlocking circular elements with sharp geometric divisions, arranged in a cross-like pattern. Each circle contains a phrase beginning with USA, such as USA EAT, USA DIE, USA HUG, USA ERR, and the central USA 666. The numerical reference 666 and the mix of commands or statements convey an intense commentary on American culture, possibly touching on themes of consumerism, mortality, love, and error. The symmetrical layout and stark typography evoke a feeling of signage or propaganda, a technique Indiana often used to critique and reflect on contemporary society. Measuring 39 cm by 31.9 cm, this limited-edition print continues Indiana's exploration of language and symbolism through art.

What is Hard Edge Art?
Hard Edge art is a style of abstract painting that became popular in the 1960s. It features areas of color separated by crisp, sharp edges that are painted with geometric precision. The term hard-edge painting was coined by art critic Jules Langsner to describe this approach, which contrasts with the softer, more fluid forms of other abstract styles.
